It’s November 30th, 2024; We’ve got a true story song for you today. I wrote the lyrics and Richard polished for phrasing, then we had Lisa Brokop sing this heartfelt song–Lisa was recently inducted into the British Columbia country music hall of fame. This song also includes soulful saxophone from John Heinrich because the music track was originally recorded at Steven Cooper’s Nashville, TN music studio. The remix was later recorded at the Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN. https://www.beairdmusicgroup.com
This is the three-hundred-thirty-fifth new music post for 2024! Always “live while you’re living” as the song says. That was a phrase that came to Sheila from her first friend, Joey Duvall. Joey was the inspiration for the song when he passed away in Jan. 2021 after receiving one of the first COVID vaccines in December of 2020. Joey was a nursing supervisor who was continuing his education at the time of his death. He had a flu shot the November prior to receiving the COVID vax that December. And then, just two weeks after that, he crossed over to the Grand Beyond. (Refer to my previous article: https://sheilamurrey.net/2021/10/20/cvid/
Joe’s untimely passing was crushing to me and my longtime friends, April, Carol Lee, and Beverly, who’d all known each other since ages 3 and 4. It’s still emotionally upsetting to write about this, even now. Joe’s obituary: https://www.mariettatimes.com/obituaries/2021/01/joseph-michael-duvall/
I have nurses in my family. And I was named after my mom’s deliver nurse, Sheila. I never wanted to become a nurse, but I often wore my aunts nursing cap when I was a child and she’d stayed with us for a few weeks during her time in nursing school. One of my first cousins, Carol Sue, was a nurse and died of cancer after having her child. Another first cousin, Laurie, was a nurse turned manager and ran several dialysis clinics–driving many distances between them.
I have been surrounded by nurses my whole life. Even the Acupuncture physician who saved my life back in 2005 had been an oncology nurse for 26 years before she went back to school for Acupuncture and became a Doctor of Oriental Medicine because she kept seeing teenage girls come into to the medical practice for breast cancer oncology treatments! She wanted to get to the root cause of why this kept happening. I wrote about Joan’s story in Have Yourself a Wholly Vibrant Life: Reversing Asthma and Other Chronic Illness Naturally.
What we know now
This is the best article and timeline I’ve seen yet, regarding the COVID vaccines:
To help me smile
Everything happens for a reason
Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason and Everything Resolves to Gratitude. Knowing that each of us (as fractals) uplifts my mind and allows me to view life as a lively kaleidoscope grand design that moves about in an ever-expanding, revolving, melodious, consciousness. Even if we have to disconnect from some people, for a time.
Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. Let’s soar in ’24! And let’s (are you ready for this?) THRIVE in ’25! or just be… Alive in ’25.
Yours in expanding, coexisting, spiraling consciousness,
Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey
